The Comic-Con is going OUTSTANDING.
We had a GREAT mixer on Thursday night! For the first time ever, we had Senior Vice Presidents from Zondervan and Thomas Nelson publishers attending the Con to see what it’s all about. The Christian industry folks have not sent that high level of exec in the past. We had a ton of industry pros attend including Sergio Cariello, Bob Luedke, Russell Dalton, Jerrell Connor, Brett Burner, Buzz Dixon, and a few more.
The new corner booth location has been really really good this year. We are getting a lot of traffic. Our new booth setup is a refinement over last year and has opened up more room for conversations.
The Action Bible is selling like hotcakes and giving us a great platform to present other comics from our members and friends.
The promotion we are doing for Russell Dalton’s “Marvelous Myths” book on Chalice Press about the Marvel universe is going great as well. Every attendee at our mixer and our upcoming panels today and tomorrow is getting one, AND we’re giving one away every hour from the booth all week long.
I am bummed to only have been able to attend for THURS myself this year, but it’s been interesting to see the Con remotely from home instead, like many of you have to! I want to see us help all the remote CCAS members get connected even if they can’t be there!
